VERSES1
-
the complete anomaly is now in review
this announcement precipitated an angry roar
as if what sounds like thunder would imply
we could make things more clear in yet some way
-
what they demanded that we must undo
is affecting my respiration more and more
but we are all in agreement to support the lie
wihin the same subordinate conjunction as they
-----------------
CHORUS1
-
i would neither ask for more cholesterol
nor tire of smelling spirit gum cause then
anything else we might be able to purify
would put potassium bitartrate into the air
-
i'm eager for the up coming dose of ethanol
or to be deficient in several minerals again
have you teased me by promising to liquefy
in your unheated state of lukewarm despair
-----------------
VERSES2
-
with my reluctant use of a flathead screw
and calamine lotion in bottles by the score
when eventually the carbonates shall run dry
there will be stuff in the vent we need to clear away
-
the wrong reagents may cause it to unglue
but what would we drop to absolute zero for
would you then ionize everything just to defy
those who say ionization won't work it really may
-----------------
CHORUS2
-
i would neither ask for more cholesterol
nor tire of smelling spirit gum cause then
anything else we might be able to purify
would put potassium bitartrate into the air
-
i'm eager for the up coming dose of ethanol
or to be deficient in several minerals again
have you teased me by promising to liquefy
in your unheated state of lukewarm despair
------------------
BRIDGE
-
i bet there's a sticky acid forming
like a marriage consummated in jello
when you gulp down a pint of anything
sometimes that's how molecules get warm
-
the substance is dissolved for pouring
but i'm still searching for absolute zero
and the urea requires careful balancing
while everything just continues to decay
-
let's keep the phosphate solution swirling
we administered ether and chloroform also
but this kind of sugar is resistant to filtering
while we're saying the magic words to transform
-
i'll inhale the vapor if time is permitting
you'll see some side effects of the placebo
as your resistance to yeast is stengthening
in every secret project you dare to betray
------------------
CHORUS3
-
i would neither ask for more cholesterol
nor tire of smelling spirit gum cause then
anything else we might be able to purify
would put potassium bitartrate into the air
-
i'm eager for the up coming dose of ethanol
or to be deficient in several minerals again
have you teased me by promising to liquefy
in your unheated state of lukewarm despair
------------------
- IT WOULD DISSOLVE
